yeah sorry i should be more descriptive. ok on my motors t it seemed that when i un did the crown that it was smaller than the bentley GT so there seems to be more tension on the GT due to the crown screw being larger (the threading of the crown screw)?? not quite sure, but when i push the crown screw of the gt to screw down it seems tighter than the motors. is that normal?

It's difficult to say for sure with something subjective like that. If it still screws down smoothly and doesn't seem to be grinding the threads then it's probably OK, but if you aren't sure take it back to the AD to get it checked.

yeah for the most part it does seem to screw down pretty smoothly. just feels tighter than my old motors.
